Bret carriers turn rate issue...9:12 vs 9:60 - Hubjump - 11-18-2016
The Bretonian carrier has a slower turn rate than a ship of larger size and higher armaments
Bretonian carrier turn rate 9:12
==========================
Lolberty carrier 9:60
Rheinland Battleship (Larger) : 10:31
Kusari battleship 9:85
Lolberty Loldread 8:66
====================
Valor/Redemption 9:60
====================
The bretonian carrier has the 4th slowest turn rate out of all the battle ships and its common foe which is larger,The Valor, Has a higher turn rate and more armaments
how does the valor which is of similar length have a higher turn rate along side its more capable weapons...i had to develop a strafe+TS technique just be to able to tail flick as turret steering is a lot harder with a lengthy ship
Also its arcs are a pile of-
2 prims backwards is terrible for such a large target,its rare that you can even fire 3 to the side because the target must be near your front for those 2 forward facing turrets to work
also it gets stuck in tradelanes...probably know this...just a friendly reminder that this is still a thing and us carrier chaps have to drop out a lane atleast 500m before the end to avoid getting stuck with the /stuck command doing nothing to help

It is a carrier not a battleship.

the lib carrier still has a higher turn rate in that case sir... and turn rates are not based on the idea of "Bigger=Slower" because that is stupid and would make all heavy carriers/battle ships absolutely useless
Also look at the liberty dreadnoughts turn rate...thats the lowest on there :|
Its a situation of balance not lore with this vessel...although people were saying to just make it a dreadnought which im kind of leaning towards lately

The ship is getting remodeled very soon so any changes to the current model are redundant.

I have one concern...with the prim positions staying the same and all...will souls carrier have better arcs and remain a heavy carrier?
with such terrible arcs on such a large vessel running is not an option when a fight is that bit too close as only 2 prims firing backwards and one to the majority of the side makes for a terrible lack of options in combat if you wish to sustain your fire apon your victim
I just love the fact that bretonia has such a large war vessel in its fleet to boast about but only if it felt the same in the few fights it takes part in (atm out of all our caps its currently kirk master race with the crecy being nerfed to nothing but an anti snub platform i see now)
